## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Amazon Luna Free Games Monitor

Track public Amazon Luna games that are playable with Prime or claimable from public Luna/free-games pages.

This Actor is useful for gaming deal sites, newsletter operators, cloud-gaming trackers, SEO/content workflows, and community bots that need a structured snapshot of Amazon Luna and Prime free-game availability.

### What it extracts

- Game title
- Availability type (`claimable`, `playable-with-prime`, or `free-with-prime`)
- Whether the game is claimable
- Whether the game is playable with Prime
- Provider inferred from public claim URLs (`gog`, `epic-games`, `amazon-games-app`, `amazon-luna`)
- Release date, developer, publisher, genre, and metascore when available from a public fallback source
- Public claim/play/detail URL
- Source URL and stable dedupe key

### Common use cases

- Monitor monthly Amazon Luna / Prime free-game lineup changes.
- Feed gaming deal newsletters or Discord bots.
- Build cloud-gaming comparison pages.
- Track which games are currently free-with-Prime versus claimable through external launchers.
- Create scheduled snapshots for change detection and content automation.

### Input

```json
{
  "sourceUrls": [
    "https://luna.amazon.com/claims/home",
    "https://clouddosage.com/gamelists/free-games-on-amazon-luna-with-amazon-prime/"
  ],
  "maxItems": 100,
  "requestTimeoutSecs": 30
}
````

#### Input fields

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `sourceUrls` | array | Public Luna/free-game pages to scan. |
| `maxItems` | integer | Maximum number of game rows to return in one run. |
| `requestTimeoutSecs` | integer | Maximum time to wait for each public request before skipping it. |

### Output

Each dataset item represents one public Luna/Prime game snapshot.

```json
{
  "title": "Alan Wake 2",
  "availabilityType": "free-with-prime",
  "claimable": false,
  "playableWithPrime": true,
  "releaseDate": "2023-10-26",
  "developer": "Remedy Entertainment",
  "publisher": "Epic Games",
  "genre": "Survival, Horror",
  "metascore": 89,
  "claimUrl": "https://clouddosage.com/games/alan-wake-2/",
  "sourceUrl": "https://clouddosage.com/gamelists/free-games-on-amazon-luna-with-amazon-prime/",
  "detectedAt": "2026-07-06T12:43:22.127Z",
  "dedupeKey": "amazon-luna|alan-wake-2"
}
```

### Recent validation examples

Validated with public sources including:

- `https://luna.amazon.com/claims/home`
- `https://clouddosage.com/gamelists/free-games-on-amazon-luna-with-amazon-prime/`

A 128 MB cloud smoke run extracted 25 public game snapshots including examples such as `A Game About Digging A Hole`, `Alan Wake 2`, and `Alan Wake Remastered`.

### Important implementation note

The public Amazon Luna claims page is client-rendered: rendered browsers can see public claim/play links, while the raw HTML may not include every visible game card. This Actor supports public Amazon Luna claim/play link markup and uses a public static fallback list for low-cost cloud runs without logging in.

No Amazon login, Prime credentials, or private account pages are used.

### Monetization

This Actor is configured for pay-per-event monetization:

- Primary event: `luna-game-snapshot`
- Scheduled price: `$0.005` per public game snapshot
- Minimum max charge: `$0.25`
- Default memory: `128 MB`
- Permission level: limited permissions

### Guardrails

- Public pages only.
- Does not claim games or interact with an Amazon account.
- Does not log in or bypass access controls.
- Always verify final availability on the official Amazon Luna source before publishing time-sensitive claims.
